Elisa Coker

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I am so glad you are here!

I have decades of experience in counseling and psychology. Upon moving to New York 8 years ago, I began my private practice where I can spend more time with each individual. Previously, in Florida, I worked in the juvenile justice and foster care systems, primarily with adolescent girls. My focus now is working with women struggling with issues related to anxiety, relational issues, and trauma, to name a few. My passion for this work stems from sharing my knowledge and skills to assist in my clients' goals. Helping people uncover resilience, reclaim agency, and thrive is a gift I cherish daily.

Dr. Arielle Jean-Pierre

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


I’m a licensed psychologist with more than 12 years of clinical training and experience working with adults and adolescents. Through a trauma-informed lens, I help clients navigate ADHD, strengthen their self-worth, deepen their relationships, and challenge messages that have taught them to make themselves small. I especially enjoy supporting women and gender-expansive people of color. Clients often describe me as warm, casual, curious, and gently direct.

E. Hope Nalpantidis

Therapist

Virtual • Nyack, NY


I’m a licensed therapist and intuitive healer who helps clients reconnect with themselves and reclaim their peace. My background blends traditional clinical training with holistic practices like reiki energy work, somatic practices and mindfulness, allowing me to meet clients where they are- mind, body, and spirit.

I specialize in supporting people who’ve carried too much for too long — those navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or complex family dynamics. My approach is real, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I don’t believe in quick fixes or surface-level advice; I believe in helping you understand your story, heal old wounds, and move forward feeling grounded, confident, and aligned.
